The Backyard Banjo Club pick up the tatters of their music careers and start it all again.
After a solid five months off gigging because Nathan fell off his bike and broke a finger, they're back baby!
Nathan bought himself a new banjo as consolation for the fact that his finger doesn't quite do what it used to. They've pulled together a bunch of new songs, and they're aching to sink a pint on stage and play some of our classic hits.
Come admire the weird finger scar. Come admire the new banjo.
Nathan Power - Banjo/Vox
Phoebe Lindner - Violin/Vox
Panfred Reed - Piano Accordian
Thomas Young - Bass
Sally Rochlin - Sax
The Backyard Banjo Club is a five-piece trad-jazz/bluegrass bonanza. Think Tom Waits meets Django Reinhardt. High energy up-tempo jazz and the occasional sultry ballad, good times guaranteed.
The Retreat Hotel would like to acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which The Retreat now stands, and pay our respects to all elders past, present and emerging.
